Rescuers Appear!

There was an icy cold feeling in the temple which made Lucas' brain calm down quickly.

He looked at Pius blankly and said.

"Aren't you afraid that Director Amelia and Minister Fudge will blame you for treating an underage wizard like this?"

Lucas' words sounded like a joke to Pius.

"Mr. Grindelwald, do you think Minister Fudge will stand up for a dark wizard?"

"Deputy Director Thicknesse, if you call me a dark wizard again, I will complain to your superiors."

"Complain?" Pierce's eyes widened.

The wand in his hand pointed even harder at Lucas' temple.

"Do you need me to take your memory out and put it in a Pensieve? Maybe then everyone will know about your group's conspiracy."

He seems to think this is a very good idea so he actually raised his wand, intending to extract his memories.

"Dude, calm down!"

Rufus stepped forward and pulled him away.

"You can't do that to an underage wizard, it's against the law."

He pushed Pius towards the corner of the office.

Rufus took over the other's job seeing that Pius was being too emotional.

"Mr. Grindelwald, we need to inspect your wand, please cooperate with us."

Although Rufus spared no effort in fighting dark wizards, but he is very rigid.

No matter what he does, he will strictly abide by the rules and regulations.

This also makes Rufus' reputation with the Ministry of Magic mixed, some people respect him while some others hate him.

Lucas looked at the serious-faced middle-aged man in front of him and the other party's information was recalled in his mind.

"Sorry Director Rufus, what if I don't want to cooperate?"

Without waiting for Rufus to speak, Pius came to Lucas again.

"Do you think we are negotiating with you? Even if you don't cooperate with us now, it doesn't matter."

"We will punish you with the "Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards Act"—prohibiting minors from abusing magic outside of school."

"Need me to tell you the consequences?"

Seeing that Lucas didn't speak, he whispered in his ear: "Usually, minors convicted of crimes will have their wands broken off and be expelled from Hogwarts."

"Mr. Grindelwald, I think some friends would be very happy to see you without the shelter of Hogwarts."

"For example, outside this door and also those people staring at you from the shadowy corners, oh Merlin, think about your fate."

Facing the intimidation of Pius, Lucas just closed his eyes.

Seeing his appearance, Pius immediately yelled out the door.

"Charlie, immediately inform the Wizengamot and the courtroom that there is a gentleman here who needs to explain his problem properly."

Outside the office, hearing Pius's voice.

Members of the Alliance immediately got up and walked towards the office.

"Everyone stop!"

Vinda sternly stopped everyone. She looked at the wooden door of the office and chose to trust Lucas.

Orwell laughed heartily and told his Aurors to get ready, once Lucas was expelled from Hogwarts, he would immediately bring him back to Germany.

In the office, Lucas' laughter suddenly came out of the silent environment.

He opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of mockery towards Pius and his companion.

"Deputy Director Thicknesse, why do you think the Wizengamot will put me on trial?"

"Huh?" Pius looked at the boy in front of him suspiciously.

Before he could ask what the other party meant, the wooden door of the office was pushed open.

"Deputy Director Pius, Head Auror Rufus, Mr. Grindelwald is the Minister's guest."

"The minister has been informed of what's going on here and he thinks it's all a misunderstanding."

It was a young man in his 20s who broke into the office.

Entering behind him was Director Amelia Bones of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

"Pius, Rufus, I already know what happened, please show evidence to prove that Mr. Grindelwald abused magic outside the school."

"Director, as long as you get his wand and check it, everything will be clear."

"Need I remind you, Pius? We can't force someone to surrender their wand without proof."

Facing Amelia's tough attitude they decided to reluctantly give in.

Lucas smiled and held out his palm: "Thank you, Director Amelia, sorry to make you come here for such a small matter."

"It's nothing Mr. Grindelwald. My little niece, Susan Bones, has always mentioned you these days. I heard that you even gave her homework advice, I am very grateful."

Lucas smiled and said it was nothing.

Susan Bones, a student of Hufflepuff, was in the same class as Lucas.

Her aunt is Amelia Bones, Head of the Ministry of Magic's Law Enforcement Department.

Lucas sent someone to investigate these materials after he came to England and met Amelia for the first time.

After thanking her, Lucas looked at the young man beside him again.

"Nice to meet you, sir, my name is Lucas Grindelwald."

"Good morning sir, my name is Pyne Carrow, Assistant to Minister Fudge."

"Oh, the Carrow family, one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight Families, it's an honor to meet you."

Hearing Lucas mention his family, Pyne's eyes were full of pride.

"Mr. Grindelwald, the Minister has been waiting for a long time, please follow me."

"Wait a minute."

Lucas turned back and walked in front of Pius.

He signaled the other person to bend down a bit.

Once he was close to his ear he whispered: "I don't know if those people outside the door and in the dark are happy now."

"But I can assure you, Deputy Director Pius, you will not be happy in the future, so better be careful!"

Once he was out of the Misuse of Magic office, everyone outside the door breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Orwell's astonished expression, Lucas smiled at him.

He waited until everyone arrived at the corridor leading to the first basement floor.

Lucas' expression immediately became cold and gloomy.

"Vinda, you know what to do next."

"Don't worry, I will arrange the most suitable person to do it."

Her expression at the moment was no different from Lucas.

It seems that this trip to the Ministry of Magic completely angered this proud lady.

"Sorry, boss, I was late."

"No, Pyne, you came just in time!"

The voices of several people were very low.

Mrs. Zabini, who was walking behind, could not hear what they were saying.

Just thought Fudge's assistant was introducing Lucas to the Ministry of Magic.

Soon, everyone arrived at the first basement floor, in front of Fudge's office.
